What You’ll Do (Key Responsibilities)
- Commercial Pricing & Modeling: Develop, maintain, and execute complex pricing modules and formulas to build accurate data for commercial proposals.
- Multi-Divisional Standardization: Analyze and price service lines across Janitorial, Landscape, and Maintenance. Identify discrepancies between divisions to create a unified, structured pricing model that protects profit margins regardless of location.
- Cost Breakdown Analysis: Deconstruct facility contracts into granular cost components—including equipment depreciation, labor rates, and supply costs—to ensure all "one-off" and recurring services are priced profitably.
- Market Benchmarking: Conduct ongoing pricing analysis and market benchmarking to ensure our bids remain highly competitive while maintaining strict alignment with corporate margin targets.
- Data Storytelling & Dashboards: Translate raw financial data into actionable insights. Build and maintain high-level dashboards (Tableau) to monitor gross margin trends for leadership.
- Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner closely with Business Development Managers (BDMs) and Operations to evaluate bids and renewals, seasonalize budgets into Adaptive, and manage data within internal ERP systems.
- Facility Services Expertise: 3 years of experience pricing out facility services. Direct experience in Janitorial, Landscaping, or Building Maintenance service lines is highly preferred.
- Advanced Excel Mastery (Required): You go far beyond basic lookups. You must have expert-level skills in complex logical formulas (IF-THEN-ELSE), financial modeling, and troubleshooting broken calculations.
- Numbers-Driven & Analytical: A sharp analytical mindset with a deep understanding of service-based labor and how operational levers (overtime, wages, supply costs) impact the bottom line.
- Diplomacy & Alignment: The ability to navigate "dual loyalties" between Sales (who want to win the bid) and Accounting (who want to protect the margin).
- Education: Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or a related field.
- Stability: A debt-free, growth-oriented, God-honoring company with high-impact leadership visibility.
- Support & Perks: Military-friendly environment with robust mental health, financial support resources, and professional development paths.
- Impact: Your insights directly influence our competitive edge, contract wins, and the long-term health of our frontline teams.
